Career

Early years

They made their junior international debut in November 2012, at the Grand Prize SNP in Banská Bystrica, Slovakia. Their senior international debut came in October 2014, at the Ice Star in Minsk, Belarus.

Sosnitskaia/Golovishnikov competed at a total of five ISU Challenger Series events. In October 2015, the duo won bronze at the 2015 CS Denkova-Staviski Cup in Sofia, Bulgaria. They appeared at five senior Russian national championships, placing seventh twice and ninth three times.

They trained in Moscow, coached by Svetlana Alekseeva, Elena Kustarova, and Olga Riabinina. Their partnership ended following the 2018–19 season.

By 2020, Golovishnikov teamed up with Russian-born ice dancer Anastasia Polibina, who had started competing for Poland in 2015.
